| Purchase the wrong modem advice I recently purchased a motorola coaxial cable modem however my house is wired with ethernet cables. Is there an adapter that i can buy that will convert the blue ethernet cable to a coaxial cable that will allow connection to the modem? |

| cable internet requires a coax feed to the modem and dsl uses a phone line, i guess you mean you need a coax to ethernet adapter? Im not sure personally if thats what you mean or if anyone makes one but you could try tigerdirect or amazon, or newegg.com. |

I'm assuming you have cable internet & want to share the connection to all the computers in your place & your place has ethernet already ran to each of the rooms.
If there is ethernet to all the rooms, I would assume they all start from the same general location (like a closet). If that is correct, you would want to plug in your modem there & then you would need a ethernet switch
I should add that if you ordered DSL, the cable modem will not work |
